Mueller Optics 8.5-25×44 AO Tactical Target Scope

After being impressed by a Mueller scope someone had at the range, I bought one of these for my bolt rifle. The view is nice and clear. I was able to zero at 200 yards and hit the target with a decent group. It may not have the big brand name, but meets my needs and fits my budget at the same time; two important things that are most often mutually exclusive.

I received my Mueller 8.5-25x44 Tactical scope today and was amazed at the quality of the scope as soon as I opened the box. Then I put the optics to the test and I could read small print on street sings at well over 400 yards with crispness. I mounted the scope on my22-250 and cant white to hunt some coyote with it. The scope has quality and clearness far beyond the price tag.

This is a very good scope and for the price you can't go wrong. After receiving it was probably a bit too much scope for my gun but after getting use to using the 8 through 25 power setting I am very glad I purchased. I was putting projectiles down range 200-yards and was able to see the bullet holes. This scope could be use at a further distance with ease, I just ran out of open range.

I purchased this for a .22LR with a +25 MOA rail. This scope holds a very reliable zero at 200 yards. I've discovered the glare from sunlight can really screw up my view, but it doesn't come with a suntube (sunshade). So I ordered a separate sunshade for it. I think Mueller could learn a lesson from BSA, who include a suntube with their high-power scopes.

Awesome scope. Looks great and not like a typical low end scope. Rich from Mueller insured me this had Japanese glass and I believe him by what I see. I compared it to a Tasco japan scope and my Mueller was clearer and brighter. I also compared this to a sightmark triple duty 8.5 25x50 and they were pretty tied optic wise with a sharper picture with Mueller and the Mueller had better contrast. I love it!! the site marks in the Muller were way better than the Bushnell legend 5-15x40 I had. Turrets were nice positive clicks and very audible and resettable. Haven't shot it yet but I'm backed up with lifetime warranty anyways! UPDATE: I took it to the target today and now see why this is $150 scope. After barrel started warming up a little the target looked distorted and nasty. I started sighting the scope on 14x at 50 yards and everything was perfect , moved to 100 yards and tried 14x power and everything was way off. Tried on 20x power and thing were all over the place. This tells me point of impact changes through magnification. I have had cheaper scopes that have never done this. I guess looking through optics are one thing but shooting them is a whole new world. I'm not going to bash the company or product as I may just got a whacky one. However I lost $45 in ammo so won't be trying a next one.

Great scope if anyone likes clear scopes that are not price courageously expensive start looking at mueller scopes, I have two of them and loved them both. I have gotten complements from lots of people at the range when they look through it.... , people that are used to expensive glass

Great product for the cost. Most of my shooting is under 500 yards and this scope is very good. I change the elevation and wind age and it is very repeatable!

The bottom line, I Sent the first one back and Amazon sent me a new one and I sent that back for refund. I have 40 dollar scopes that are way better.

I purchased this scope based on others reviews. I have always had inexpensive scopes with some performing better than others. After looking through a buddies nikon 6-24, 800$ scope i liked it, but thought wow, i can't justify the price. I know, you get what you pay for right! Well i purchased the Mueller 8.5-25 thinking I would get something like a Bushnell banner. Well was I mistaken. This scope is so clear at maximum zoom its unreal. My buddy with the Nikon was very impressed and said he couldn't see much difference between the two. His will probably perform better at low light, but I'm not using it for hunting. Its got a mil dot reticle and the crosshairs are not too thick. If you are thinking should I buy this scope, i assure you, you wont be disappointed. I have it mounted on a savage 25 thumbhole 223.

Not bad, Not great. Fairly clear up to about 16x after that forget it. It's just way to dark for my liking. I have 2 other Mueller scopes and i can tell you the glass is much better on them. But hey can't complain paid $ 120.00 on amazon's warehouse deals.

Great scope for the money. Have it mounted on cz455 22lr. Fairly positive "clicks" on moa adjustments. holds zero. No issues with quality. Glass is clear. No fog at max zoom.

Works great. Good price
